Turner in Practical Farmer. ^ Onr hi tchly esteemed friend Prof. MasHey.is decidedly oppose* to gambling in fertilizers, whil< we as decidedly favor it. Las winter we had the very grea pleasure of a visit to Zacharial ^ Drake, of Marlboro Co., S. C.,who il will be remembered, harvestet 255 bushels of corn from a singh acre. Together with that gentle man we surveyed said Amerieai Agriculturist's Prise Acre, ant were informed that upward o two bales of ootton per acre hat fcaen uathered from said acr very year since, with the excep tion of the year succeeding tha in which the prise crop wa raised, in which year oats wen own on it. The land was too ncl for oati, sausing them to mak< too mnoh straw, wiuds blew then down and tangled them up 8 badly that it was a matter of im possibility to save more than hal f them, said half threshing ou 75 bushels. What Prof. Masaey i pleased to term as "gambling ii ^ fertilisers," or in other worde "squeezing a sale crop out of *i impoverished soil," or, in stil otlior words, "the application o commercial fertilizers for tli mere purpose of getting goo< ? crops,"is somewhat ditVerent fron the gonuine article to which w wish to refer to in this article Mr. Masscy's gambling no Ha511 bling at all. 'Tie true there is ai element of chunco in it, but tie saino is equally true of every op oration of the farm, of every croj pi An to.1 and of every head of 1 iv< Block that breuthes the breath o life.
